From 53399053eb505cf541b2405bd9d9bca5ecfb96fb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russell King Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2011 12:22:52 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Ensure predictable endian state on signal handler entry Ensure a predictable endian state when entering signal handlers. This avoids programs which use SETEND to momentarily switch their endian state from having their signal handlers entered with an unpredictable endian state.
